Omega Teen Camp Activities

Choose just what you want to do

Unlike most other camps, at Omega Teen Camp teens do not have to commit to any one activity track. For a rich and varied experience, teens choose daily from more than 40 Omega Teen Camp activities.

While Omega Teen Camp offers many traditional summer camp activities like swimming, canoeing, basketball, and the high ropes course, teens also have the opportunity to explore powerful activities that are unique to our camp. Omega Teen Camp activities are designed to provide safety and encouragement for teens to build self-confidence and enhance creativity. Every day skilled professional dancers, artists, and musicians help teens learn and explore new things. Some of our most popular Omega Teen Camp activities include the sweat lodge, yoga, henna tattooing, tarot card reading, massage classes, spa treatments, Reiki, tai chi, meditation, and astrology.

Most of our activities are open to all ages with a few programs geared specifically toward older or younger teens.
